Publication day for Traces of Mary!

My first book, "Thunder Rise," from William Morrow, was published in 1989, and what a thrill it was for a young writer to hold a copy in his hands. 

Thirty-three years later, the thrill remains with publication today of my 20th: "Traces of Mary," from Crossroad Press, which USA Today bestselling author Jon Land called "a bold, bracing, blisteringly original hybrid tale that reads like Stephen King on steroids." 

Part horror, part science fiction, part mystery and thriller, and part exploration of mental illness, "Traces of Mary" is unlike anything I have ever written. 

I hope this novel meets your expectations! 

And the same for the two short stories with extraterrestrial themes that are included in the volume: “A Couple from Manhattan,” which unfolds in a Lovecraftian setting, and “This Little Bug,” about an impending pandemic that will make COVID seem like child’s play. 

Read the reviews, order the book.

And stay tuned for my 21st book, coming in 2023!
